I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure my boss decides whether or not I get to retire. That's why I plan to work until I'm 90.

Wait, did you say social security is at the employer's discretion? That's news to me! I'm going to have to go with option A on this one.

That's right, social security is not at the discretion of the employer. Retirement plans, on the other hand, are usually offered by the employer.

Social security programs are actually mandated by the government, not the employer.

Disability (occupational) sounds like something the employer would offer, but I'm not 100% sure. I might have to do some more research on this one.

Unemployment insurance is definitely not at the employer's discretion. That's a government-mandated benefit. I'm going with option A.
